Manchester United news: Jose

Mourinho defends 89m worldrecord Paul Pogba transfer fee


after Feyenoord slump
Pogba was anonymous once again as United succumbed to a 1-0 loss
to Feyenoord.

Jose Mourinho says Paul Pogba should not be judged by his worldrecord 89m transfer fee after another fruitless performance
during Manchester Uniteds Europa League defeat by Feyenoord
on Thursday evening.
Pogba, who re-joined United from Juventus last month, was
anonymous once again for Mourinhos men as they succumbed to
a 1-0 loss in Rotterdam just five days after the damaging derby
setback against Manchester City at Old Trafford on Saturday.
United travel to Watford on Sunday knowing talk of a crisis will
snowball if they fail to overcome Walter Materazzis side but
Mourinho, who did his level best not to discuss Pogbas fortunes,
insists he is not concerned by the midfielders stuttering form.

13 Premier League clubs broke their transfer records this summer


as the English game bathed in 5.13bn of television rights
money. Less decorated clubs such as Crystal Palace (Christian
Benteke, 32m), Everton (Yannick Bolasie, 28m) and West Ham

United (Andre Ayew, 20.5m) parted with sums previously


unavailable to them.
But Mourinho is not prepared to accept that Pogbas early season
strife is down to the weight of expectation and instead highlighted
a number of mitigating circumstances which should be
considered instead.
